I will briefly discuss the construction of the moduli spaces of (semi)stable bundles on a given curve. The main aim of the talk will be to describe various features of the geometry and topology of these moduli spaces, with emphasis on methods as much as on results. Topics may include irreducibility, cohomology, Verlinde numbers, Torelli theorems.
